A compact sensor for measuring temperature and pressure in a combustion chamber has been proposed. Heretofore, independent measurements of high pressures and temperatures in combustion chambers have not been performed. In the original intended application, the combustion chamber would be...

The C6 perfluoroalkyl formulation overcomes the environmental issues inherent in other perfluoroalkyl tails, and imparts non-stick properties and resistance to oil, grease, solvents, or water that are similar to C8 fluoroalkyl tails. Chemicals containing perfluoroalkyl tails are used for stain,...

A company is searching for an innovative technology for the measurement of oxygen with sub-ppm resolution. They are seeking a continuous method of measurement or those with cycle times measured in seconds, the ability to measure within a flammable gas such as hydrogen, and a non-consumable device with a long...

A company is looking for a method to manufacture controlled, ultra-lightweight, open-cell silicone foam. The foam cells must have very similar size, and the foam must be very elastic with a water absorption coefficient of 300-400%. The company is looking for companies able to design or to...

Atomic-layer deposition (ALD) has been shown to be effective as a means of coating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with layers of Al2O3 that form strong bonds between the CNTs and the substrates on which the CNTs are grown. It should also be possible to form strong CNT/ substrate bonds using other coating...
